supercomputer & SSL trivia ... from:
http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2011k.html#50 The real reason IBM didn't want to dump more money into Blue Waters

in this referenced cluster scaleup jan92 meeting in ellison's conference
room
http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/95.html#13

two of the (other) people (mentioned in the meeting) later leave and
join a small client/server startup responsible for something called
commerce server. As mentioned in the above (supercomputer reference)
... we also leave ... later we are brought in to consult at the small
client/server startup because they want to do payment transactions on
the server; the small client/server startup had invented this technology
called "SSL" they want to use ... the result is now frequently called
"electronic commerce". Not long afterwards, I coin the term "comfort
certificates" to differentiate between (comfort from the) appearance of
security and real security. misc.  past posts about ssl digital
certificates http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/subpubkey.html#sslcerts

other RDBMS trivia ... one of the other people in the Jan92 meeting
would claim that they handled most of the (RDBMS) technology transfer
from Endicott (SQL/DS) back to STL for DB2. Previously I had done some
amount of the System/R tech transfer from SJR to Endicott for SQL/DS.
